- PA6 = Tough & flexible, but absorbs moisture → best for gears/hinges.
- PA12 = Strong, less moisture absorption → easier to use than PA6.
- PA6-CF = Nylon PA6 with carbon fiber → strong, stiff, matte finish.
- PA12-CF = Premium version → stiff, low moisture absorption, very stable.
- PA12-GF = Glass fiber reinforced → rigid, stable, heat-resistant, ideal for brackets & housings.
Print durable and functional parts with Nylon (PA6) Filament, one of the strongest engineering-grade materials available for FDM 3D printing. Known for its high strength, excellent flexibility, and outstanding wear resistance, PA6 is widely used for industrial and mechanical applications.
This filament provides superior impact resistance, fatigue endurance, and durability, making it perfect for parts exposed to repeated stress such as gears, hinges, bushings, and mechanical tools. Nylon PA6 also features excellent chemical resistance and can withstand moderate heat, making it suitable for demanding environments.
Due to its hygroscopic nature, PA6 should be stored in a dry box or dried before use for best performance. Printing in an enclosed chamber is recommended to reduce warping and improve dimensional accuracy.
